10. Copperhead - Arkham Origins

Copperhead is one of the many assassins gathered to collect the bounty placed on Batman's head in Arkham Origins, and her boss fight is one of the most memorable.

At the beginning, she catches Batman by surprise and infects him with a deadly hallucinogen that causes him to see a multitude of clones, increasing more and more as the toxin sinks deeper into his veins.

Batman, and the player, can easily get confused and overwhelmed by the horde of Copperhead doubles converging around him, ready to kill him. All of them are able to hurt you, but you can only hurt one of them. You have to have a keen eye, or you'll be wasting your time fighting enemies that just absorb all of your attacks.

Copperhead was nearly able to kill Batman, a credit most villains can't claim. This battle provides a unique kind of combat not seen elsewhere in the game, and is tense in a narrative context as well because of how close Batman is to dying in the middle of this fight.
